Tasting Notes
"This is a mezcal that commands your full attention with a rollercoaster of aromas and flavors, most of them on the fruity side, some natural and some artificial flavors. On the nose, cactus pear, aloe vera, durian, cotton candy, Runts fruit candy and lime zest to name a few. The journey continues on the palate with ash, watermelon, sweet apple, and blossom water. This is an extremely expressive mezcal that just leaps out of the glass. "
